Sunny Day (George Olsen 1995)
In happiness and swelled with pride
My footsteps graced these boards
My throat tingled with excitation
As I strummed my angry chords
And every night the drum beat tight
As the bass-man ploughed his course
My spirits flew, I was born anew
From the past I felt divorced
We took the stage, we took the town
We took on half the world
Or so it seemed from behind the scenes
We could fight for every cause
But the fight was mine in the course of time
And I battled for applause
Like the breath of life and the Light of God
It was all my life was worth
Chorus:
Sunny, sunny day, when all my dreams came true
A man, a band, a guitar in hand
I never thought I needed you..
The public came the public heard
The public disappeared
I sang my songs, some sang along
Some even shed some tears
But the band complained no gravy-train
Brought enough dessert their way
And from the joys of awkward boys
Discontent crept in to stay
The band got changed, the songs rearranged
But still the beat played on
Everyone was entertained
Until the audience was gone
The reflection in the mirror
Of the star upon the door
Tried to guide a ship lost at sea
But the mad Captain was me..
Chorus (x2)
Fade on: I never thought I needed you
..Oh how much I needed you…
